Description
Summary:Three samples of 1st-year undergraduate students (Ns = 378, 458, 292) completed the short form Revised Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (S. B. G. Eysenck, Eysenck, & Barrett, 1985) together with indexes of church attendance and personal prayer. The data confirm that psychoticism is fundamental to individual differences in religiosity, whereas both public and private expressions of religion are independent of extraversion and neuroticism.
